Do you have a Profile model ?

@ahmadaljazzar thanks.

I forgot to capitalize profile. Now I get another issue of undefined variable: $data

I am trying to insert data to db and redirect with this function :

{
	// persist the data (insert to db) 
	//and then redirect to the hub.
        Profile::create([
            'name' => $data['name'],
            'age' => $data['age'],
            'goals' => $data['goals'],
            'activityType' => $data['activityType'],
            'expectations' => $data['expectations']
        
        ]);

    return redirect()->route('hub');  // this is where you redirect to the hub after you store the User
    }

What's up with the data variable. Do you happen to know what should I do now?

If not that's okay too since you've done good with the original problem :)

You must pass $data to your store method, which is the request you're sending from your form. your store method should look like this.

protected function store(Request $data)
{
// persist the data (insert to db) 
//and then redirect to the hub.
        Profile::create([
            'name' => $data['name'],
            'age' => $data['age'],
            'goals' => $data['goals'],
            'activityType' => $data['activityType'],
            'expectations' => $data['expectations']

        ]);

    return redirect()->route('hub');
}

You're the best.

I am now getting this error (sql error):

QueryException in Connection.php line 651: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'age' cannot be null (SQL: insert into `profiles` (`age`, `goals`, `activityType`, `expectations`, `updated_at`, `created_at`) values (, , , , 2016-01-17 23:15:38, 2016-01-17 23:15:38))

I think I should change something in the migration regarding the age column. Just checking that out.

A big honest thanks deserves to you!

Your database fields aren't nullable, so you can't create a profile with empty values. check your form, make sure you name your inputs.

I've just changed the given field to this:

   $table->tinyInteger('age')->unsigned()->nullable();

Still gives me the same error :(

I am so sorry for troubling you much..

Share your form.

Please:

 {!! Form::open(['url'=>'/dashboard']) !!} 

        <p> A)&nbsp I am a: &nbsp{!! Form::radio('ActivityType',null,['class'=>'form-control']) !!} Male
 &nbsp{!! Form::radio('ActivityType',null,['class'=>'form-group']) !!} Female

@if (count($errors) > 0)
  <div class="alert alert-danger">
        <strong>Whoops!</strong> There were some problems with your input.<br><br>
        <ul>
            @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
                <li>{{ $error }}</li>
            @endforeach
        </ul>
    </div> 
@endif

 <br><br> B)&nbsp My Age is:
 {!! Form::number('name', 'value'); !!}


        <p> C)&nbsp What are your fitness goals for the next year?<br></p>
{!! Form::textarea('notes', 'By default,other users can see your goals.',['class'=>'form-control', 'maxlength'=>100]) !!}</p> <!--default is null -->
<p> D)&nbsp I am better in:</p>
 &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp{!! Form::radio('ActivityType',null,['class'=>'form-control']) !!}  Aerobics
 &nbsp{!! Form::radio('ActivityType',null,['class'=>'form-control']) !!} Anerobic
 &nbsp{!! Form::radio('ActivityType',null,['class'=>'form-group']) !!} I am pretty good at both <br><br>
 
 E) What do you expect from this app to help you? <br><br> (You can always change this later) <br><br>
 &nbsp{!! Form::checkbox('improve','New anerobic routines'); !!} Find new anerobic routines <br>
 &nbsp{!! Form::checkbox('improve','New aerobic routines'); !!} Find new aerobic routines <br>
 &nbsp{!! Form::checkbox('improve','Follow'); !!} Follow other users to get inspired <br>
<br><br>
{!! Form::submit('CreateProfile',['class'=>'form-group']) !!}
</div>

        {!! Form::close() !!}

You don't have any field with name of age. replace you age field with this.

{!! Form::number('age', null) !!}

This will render html input field with a name of age and type number.

@ahmadaljazzar okay thanks.

Now it says that 'goals' cannot be null. So I quickly updated the goals' section in the view to this:

  <p> C)&nbsp What are your fitness goals for the next year?<br></p>
{!! Form::textarea('goals','By default,other users can see your goals.',['class'=>'form-control', 'maxlength'=>100]) !!}</p> <!--default is null -->

and also in the migration to this:

 $table->tinyInteger('age')->unsigned()->nullable();
            $table->string('goals')->unsigned()->nullable();;

still gets me the same error. Do you know what now maybe? EDIT: I am off to sleep - really late here. I will check on this post tomorrow morning. thanks for now!!! extremely helpful you are :)

Remove the unsigned from goals and remove the duplicated semicolon then share the error please.

I have also made some progress.

I just need to change the value to activityType to an actual value. when trying to do this - it returns an error:

constant' aerobics' is not defined.

I also get:

Route [/hub] not defined.

@osherdo because you probably don't have a route named '/hub'.
